This was just what I needed! I took one too many falls off of horse, landed on the right side, and my hips, especially my right, have been tight, which caused me pain in my lower back. This was great to get this feeling a lot better! Thank you :D

Thank you David for this great workout. While stretching was slightly intense, I need to admit, my legs feel amazing!
But more than that I loved the relaxation part. Suddenly I felt that my whole inner body image had changed - during shavasana I saw my rib cage, visualized upper and low spine, muscles... That was a discovery I never made before, so impressed.
